Title: NSFminer - New Ethereum miner without dev fee
Post by: styleshifter on February 17, 2021, 07:46:37 AM
Just wanted to ask if somebody already tested the NSFminer?
NSF means "no stinkin fees"  ;)
I couldn't find a thread about it here on Bitcointalk.

Here is the link to GitHub:

Never heard of this before, hope it's not a trojan miner? Have you tested it yourself? I won't try out any fresh miner on my PC unless people are already using the miner, it's dangerous

It's a fork of ethminer and open source, too.
HiveOS and minerstat have included the miner to their software.
So I think it's not a trojan.

The hashrate seems to be okay but it have to test it for a longer period of time.

I tested NSFminer for several hours and it has almost the same hashrate as Phoenix Miner or GMiner.

sorry to say, it is very very hard to believe that some people can still work for free without taking something back in this world today, what is in for you? you can't just create a mining software without taking dev fee, why do you decide to make this miner a free software?

You have to ask the developer.
Kawpowminer for RVN has no dev fee, too.

a new miner with the same hash / rate as phoenix miner? and without dev fee it would be to try immediately but the fear that it may contain a troian or a virus stops me i will wait for it to be tried / tested at best and if it is reliable i will definitely use it

This is a follower of the Ethminer project. Ethminer also had no miner fees, but this miner is no longer updated and there is no support for the 30x0 series. For older video cards, for example 1070 it can be used. I read about nsfminer, this is not cheating, you can use it.
Latest release.
